The question I wanted to ask the Senator from Kentucky was this: Where there is a contest in the Electoral College. and the cofitest is sent to Congress to be decided upon a vote of the House. it might be decided by 5. 10. 15. 20. or 40 Representatives who represent temporary visitors in the United States. That is not reasonable. I assume that all these men and women who come here are still residents of the European countries or the Asiatic countries from which they come. that they are citizens there. Yet their presence in the United States may cause a change of 50 Representatives in the House of Representatives. and if a presidential election is thrown into the House. that election might be determined one way or the other because we have temporarily some visitors in our Nation from abroad. Is that a correct statement?
